Philips Sonicare Series 2

When it came out, Sonicare`s
second series was one of the most attractive electric toothbrushes. Nowadays,
its quality still stands. It`s available in three different models. The only
thing that separates these models is their colors. You can find it in black,
white/coral, and white/blue. This last one is the most popular one.

The second series is one of the
best ones in the history of the company. This series has removable heads. There
is nine of them. However, you will get only one. Other ones you would need to
buy separately. Although they are one of the best, they can be a little
aggressive on your gums if you are not careful.

There are Oral-B brushesh that might be more to your liking, because of their oscillating, rather than sonic, vibrations. Even though, it till be hard to find a cheaper model than the Sonicare 2 that offers the same features and functionalities.

During the daily cleaning of the teeth we commit numerous errors that we do not realize. These errors lead to serious consequences of dental health. In this article we will investigate these errors, their causes and possible solutions.

Wrong brushing

The most used technique in cleaning the teeth is to hold the toothbrush in a horizontal manner and brush from right to left. Now try to imagine your teeth as those of a comb. How do you remove your hair from inside? Brush from bottom to top. Eureka! It is precisely in this way that the teeth should be brushed. It starts from the gum and flows to the tip of the tooth. Then change the direction from bottom to top if you clean the bottom and top down if you clean the top of the mouth.

How many times do you brush your teeth a day?

If you ask this question to yourself and to many other people, do you know what the answer will be? Classic “I brush my teeth 2 times a day, morning and evening”. Now stop and think, what good is it to wash your teeth when you wake up, if you did it before you got into bed and assumed that during the night you did not eat while you were sleeping? And then have breakfast, then snack, then lunch, in the afternoon eat a little something to stop the appetite and evening dinners. And when do you brush your teeth in the evening? After all you ate during the day? The teeth must ALWAYS be washed after eating something, especially if sweet.

How much time do you spend on brushing?

In general it is said that the teeth should be brushed for at least 3 minutes, but I try to do more and give you a discount, 2 minutes. Now put yourself in front of the mirror, start brushing and start the stopwatch. Have you seen how long two minutes are? Did you understand that you brush your teeth too little? Most people brush their teeth for less than 30 seconds. It’s like taking a shower in two minutes and pretending to be neat and clean. Impossible. The advice to spend more time is to start from the most hidden parts and at the bottom of the oral cavity, and then come out slowly.

How much toothpaste do you use?

Have you ever seen advertisements for toothpastes? Squeeze half a tube on the toothbrush, neglecting the edges abundantly both on one side and the other. Did you think it was the correct quantity given that you put it in the foreground and full screen? Wrong, it is only the correct quantity to consume more and consequently buy more tubes. Just a small ball of toothpaste to clean the teeth, if we use too much not only is useless, but even harmful!

The toothpaste

Also in this case are the advertisements that have to sell the various products to condition us. They make us believe that using that toothpaste rather than another solves the problems of the world. But is not so. The most experienced dentists will always tell you “You can brush your teeth without toothpaste, but you can not wash them without a toothbrush”. Toothpaste is an adjunct to cleaning teeth, does not work miracles, contains fluoride, gives a small hand, but what really matters is the action of the brushes against the teeth. Without a proper rubbing you want to squeeze tubes, it would be useless.

In 1947 Bruno Dalla Corte is a young technician full of enthusiasm, who starts working at the Cimbali company. In the 1950s, Bruno won the trust of the owner of the La Faema group, contributing to the creation of the E61. In the ’60s Bruno’s creative mind worked non-stop at the autonomous assistance centers he managed. From its genius, in the ABA workshops in Bologna, the innovative steam circulation technology is born: this is how the production of the La Spaziale machine began at the ABA workshops. The company La Spaziale will see Bruno’s constant commitment, together with his son Paolo, for many years.

The original independent group

Start a new exciting adventure! The desire to innovate drives Paolo, together with his father Bruno and his sister Elsa, to found a new company. Thus it was born in 2001 Dalla Corte. The strong family imprint is recognized right from the logo: Bruno’s elegant signature becomes an integral part of the brand.

The Evolution is the first professional coffee machine launched on the market, the only one in the world equipped with the original multi-boiler technology with independent groups. A real revolution, for a sector that until that moment was static.

The “Proof of Taste” years

Proof of Taste, the slogan of those years, is a real challenge to the industry. The exclusive multi-boiler technology is the only one that allows to set a constant and precise temperature to the tenth of a degree. Each coffee has its own characteristic taste, only one ideal point of extraction: times have changed.

The fried zucchini flowers are a specialty that in some areas of Italy rises to true culinary emblem. Like in Rome, for example, where they are filled with mozzarella and anchovies, and then fried in batter. In other areas, such as in Veneto, they are wrapped in a crusty breadcrumbs of egg and breadcrumbs. But in short, a vegan version is there? Yes, it exists, and we offer it to you, both in a simple version (only the flower) and filled. You can use both zucchini and courgette flowers, although often the two varieties are confused they are both excellent. Another entirely subjective option is to remove or not the pistils inside the flower. They have an intense and bitter taste, which some love, others do not: choose you, but if you choose to remove them, be extremely delicate so as not to break the flower.

Zucchini flowers in vegan batter

Basically, we advise you to plenty with the batter, because the flower will be completely immersed. We will make it with rice flour , very cold beer , a pinch of salt. Put the rice flour in a bowl, about 100 grams for 6 flowers, and the beer is very cold (33 cl). Add a pinch of salt, and mix well with a whisk to remove lumps. The batter should be quite dense, smooth and homogeneous.

Gently clean the flowers, dip them one by one in the batter and dip in the boiling oil for frying. The beer will instantly bring out the batter, which will result in a soft pancake. Salt also externally and serve hot.

Filled zucchini flowers

Follow the previous procedure regarding frying. But before dipping the flowers into the batter, fill them with this filling . 50 grams of smoked tofu, crumbled by hand. 10 coarsely chopped desalted capers. 15 grams of crushed pine nuts. Two or three fresh chopped basil leaves. Add all the ingredients and use them as a filling for each flower. Close the end well with the batter so that it does not come out during frying.

If you like, you can spice up the batter with aromas in powder (turmeric, cumin, saffron).

In the summer months you hear a lot about it, because they are related to healthy tanning . But at no point in the year should we overlook carotenoids , or those vegetable pigments with important nutritional functions. Precursors of Vitamin A, they are subdivided into beta-carotene (very well known) and alpha-carotene, less known because it generates more difficultly the vitamin, but definitely more effective from the antioxidant point of view. A true elixir of long life. And where is this alpha carotene? The name itself says: in carrots .

.

Carrots for a feast of antioxidants

Making carrots is a panacea for the body. The alpha-carotene contained in them in abundance is in fact a very powerful antioxidant, so much so that some studies correlate it to cancer care and the lower risk of mortality due to cardiovascular problems. The antioxidant action is effective on many aspects, because it fights free radicals , harmful molecules that are formed in the body with aging. But also due to external agents such as stress, smoking, excessive exposure to the sun, chemical additives, pollution.

But how can we consume carrots to stock up on alpha-carotene (but also beta-carotene and lycopene)? Surely, munching them raw . Cooking greatly reduces the beneficial substances. As a pinzimonio, in salad. Grate inside fresh vegetable wrappers, or put in white yogurt. In this way you will also make a good feast of fiber. Alternatively, centrifuge the juice: in this way you consume even 4 or 5 carrots at once, perhaps with a drop of lemon juice to increase the vitamin C, another important and abundant component. However, consider that the carotenoids are contained in many other vegetables, very easy to recognize: it is all orange, yellow and red fruit and vegetables. So the melon, peaches, peppers, apricots. While in the winter months pumpkin, sweet potatoes, mandarin. In addition, carrot oil is also rich in beneficial substances.

The iced coffee is a pleasure that comes in many versions. Absolute, bitter, or sweetened. With the addition of cream, creamy and delicious. With a dash of alcohol, for a refreshing cocktail. Typically Italian (many bet on the origin of Salento) the simple version with ice and sugar, but the whole world has been inspired to create a refreshing drink, energizing, and above all incredibly pleasant on the palate.

There are many ways to prepare it, starting from the ‘source’: espresso, moka or soluble coffee ? Shaken with ice or simply left in the fridge? To each his own. From city to city you can find different versions. Even bar in bar. Starting in June, Autogrill has also included in its menu the cold coffee shop, a real treat for those who stop for a while on the highway. The ‘summer edition’ of coffee is designed to enhance the aroma of the drink, with different recipes that start from the classic up to the frozen cappuccino, or coffee with chocolate or cream. Kimbo, partner of Autogrill, has made available a mixture created specifically for cold coffee.

Cold coffee: the recipe

It is not difficult to prepare a cold coffee. And, as mentioned, the ‘recipes’ are many. The basic, which is also prepared at home, consists of preparing a classic coffee mocha. Once ready, put it in a shaker (if you do not have it, any jar with lid will be fine), and sweeten to taste. Add the ice, and shake until the coffee has formed a soft foam. Consume immediately. If you want to keep it in the fridge for a few days, make a large moka, from 8 cups. Pour the coffee into a carafe, stretching it with water (taste is important to understand how you like it, it should not be too watered down but not too strong) and sugar. Shake, and let it cool.

The cold coffee can be made more creamy with the addition of cream, or milk. The condensed one poured on the bottom of a small glass creates a particularly nice scenic effect when the coffee is poured over. The white and the black that envelop greedily. You can also flavor the cold drink with hazelnuts, cinnamon, cocoa. Or use it to enrich desserts and ice creams.
